Quickstart

For detailed installation instructions, consult the docs.

To download, install and start the local server for development, simply run:

git clone git@github.com:djangopackages/djangopackages.git
cd djangopackages
cp .env.local.example .env.local
docker compose build
docker compose up

Then point your browser to http://localhost:8000 and start hacking!

If you are running into conflicting port issues, we have an override file which re-maps Django (port: 18000) and Postgres (port: 45432). To activate it, simply run:

docker compose build
docker compose up

To run tests, run:

docker compose run django pytest
